The MBF is a festival of all banjo styles, but always includes a good smattering of Classic Style. From the afternoon concert running order I see that site members David Wade, Helmut Rheingans, Claude Burvenich and Russ Chandler will be playing again this year... a great treat indeed!
Here is a recap of the video that I made when Lynn and I attended the 2012 Fest. A great time was had by all !
The venue opens at 12.00 noon and there will be Trade Stands and a pile of banjos from private sellers for sale too.
There are several bars so plenty of Beer and Banjos and chat, what could be better? :-)
The afternoon concert starts at 2.00pm.
